CD960 tray problem...

[Skorpio]

The tray will not open or close. If it is helped a little with a finger I will move, but not without....

It could lack some oil or lubricant? What to do?

hai, iv been thru with diz kindof problem before, what i did was get the tray motor replaced and it works. you can source the motor from any philips cdm4 tray mech. good luck.

Where is the tray motor and is rework possible?

Dont think it is gear because it can work with a little help....?

Belt?

Belt seems ok......but perhaps tension on it?

Loose part inside...

When I opened the played a part was loose inside. With a little shake it fell out. It was a little metal pin or axle....2mm in diameter and 10-11mm long....with hard surface...like a capstan axle on a cassette player.

Anybody know what it could be? Possible a part of the tray mechanism?

It seems to be the two belts, the motor is running but they do not move the wheels....

Anybody knows the types?

Hi,
I have the same problem. I opened up my CD960 and this little pin drop out. I cannot figure out where does it come from.
My 960 tray keep open out and not spin when I close it. I dont see the laser light up. Any help? Tks
